About the Vinten VB5-FTMS System Vision Blue5 FT MS

The Vinten VB5-FTMS System Vision Blue5 FT MS is a premium, fully configured robotic camera support system engineered for the most demanding high-capacity broadcast and cinematic studio applications. This complete package centers on the powerful Vision Blue5 pan-and-tilt head, configured here in a "FT MS" variant indicating a specific heavy-duty tripod or base and a comprehensive studio configuration tailored for maximum stability and smooth operation with large payloads. It is designed to support substantial broadcast camera packages, including large sensor cameras, heavyweight cinema-style lenses, teleprompters, and auxiliary gear, with the flawless precision and silence required for critical on-air and recorded productions.

A hallmark of this system is its sophisticated electronic counterbalance and electromagnetic drag systems. The electronic Variable Counterbalance (eVC) allows for instantaneous, tool-free rebalancing of the camera payload via a keypad, a critical feature when switching between different lenses or configurations during a production. The electromagnetic drag provides exceptionally smooth and consistent resistance across the entire range of pan and tilt movement, enabling operators to execute both subtle, slow moves and rapid, precise re-framing with absolute control. This system is built for integration, offering seamless compatibility with Vinten's full range of robotic control solutions, from manual pan bars to full software-driven automation.

The VB5-FTMS represents a turnkey solution for facilities requiring the ultimate in camera support technology. It is the system of choice for flagship news studios, major live sports broadcast positions, high-end corporate studios, and any environment where camera movement must be both powerfully robust and artistically fluid. By delivering unmatched payload capacity, silent operation, and perfect balance in a ready-to-deploy package, it provides production teams with a reliable technological foundation to achieve dynamic, repeatable, and visually stunning camera work that meets the highest standards of modern broadcast and production.
